Did this thread start with an announcement that a technical solution
was forthcoming or am I on crack?
You are not on crack (actually, how the hell do I know, you might be),
I'm just saying that at one point, there were indeed another technical
solution.
As an aside I was not arguing that
your points were flawed. I was just saying that both alternatives are
legitimately objectionable, and I reject the notion that one of more so
than the other.
You are indeed correct, this is hard to argue with.
We do this with date formatting and ISBN numbers
you would think it
would not be that hard (though I think you would have to wikify them
all). See now I have to go back and re-read the start of the thread.
